Blues to introduce Stastny and new-look gear at Ballpark Village

The St. Louis Blues will introduce new center Paul Stastny as well as their new-look on-ice gear in a 6 p.m. "Ice Breaker" fan event Aug. 25 at Ballpark Village near Busch Stadium.

Fans are invited to attend the event, which will include Blues captain David Backes and the team's alternate captains. They will get to see the franchise's new jerseys and have an opportunity to win prizes.

Stastny, 28, joined the Blues in early July when the former Colorado Avalanche center signed a four-year deal worth $28 million. The deal includes a no-trade clause.

Stastny is coming off a season that saw him score 25 goals and 60 points in 71 games for the Avalanche. He grew up in St. Louis and is the brother of former Blues player Yan Stastny and the son of former Blues and NHL great Peter Stastny.
